Known as one of the most beautiful women in Bollywood, Katrina Kaif is not only an actress by profession; she is also a makeup mogul.

Katrina Kaif regularly shares her makeup tips and tricks on social media, namely on her Instagram account, much to the delight of her fans.

In fact, the actress launched her makeup line, Kay by Katrina also known as Kay Beauty on October 22, 2019.

Her initial product line-up included matte lip crayons and lip liner pencils which are available in an array of colours.

Since then, Kay by Katrina has expanded its range of products to lipsticks, highlighters, loose powder and more.

We present various tips and tricks courtesy of Katrina Kaif from a cat-eye look to bold red lipstick.

A Classic Red Lip Look

On November 20, 2020, Katrina Kaif launched her range of matte lipsticks. Taking to Instagram, she wrote:

“So excited for our @kaybykatrina newest launch. Kay Beauty Matte Drama Lipsticks Lipstick, but better.

“Let’s break this down: It’s Matte it’s weightless it’s moisturising. Shade Name: On Screen. It’s everything you need in a lipstick!”

Alongside the caption, the Tiger Zinda Hai (2017) actress shared a picture of herself striking a pose in a red lip.

There is no denying the power of red lipstick which can instantly make the wearer feel confident.

For an extra touch like Katrina pair your red lip with matching red nails and dress. Alternatively, you can don a red lip with a casual outfit to spruce up your look.

Ombre Eyebrows

Perfecting your brows is essential to achieving the best makeup look. It is important to remember eyebrows should be sisters and not twins.

This is because the face is not symmetrical so it is not possible to groom your eyebrows to appear identical.

Katrina Kaif shared her trick on how to achieve the best eyebrows. She explained:

“Brow Ombre with Brow Studio from @kaybykatrina. A trend that I swear by.

“Here are steps to achieve this look: Fill in the inner corner with a lighter shade and use the darker shade in the centre n outer corner.

“This gives a subtle yet defined look.”

So, the next time you fill in your brows be sure to remember Katrina Kaif’s eyebrow hack.

Benefits of Loose Powder  

Constantly being on the go can cause you to be left with an oily t-zone which subsequently effects the placement of your makeup.

To combat this, Katrina shared her trick. The actress uses loose powder to ensure her makeup lasts all day.

As well as the long-lasting benefit, using loose powder over your makeup is also great to enhance the look.

In this instance, Katrina Kaif uses Kay Beauty’s loose powder. Taking to Instagram she wrote:

“The fastest route to looking camera ready for me is to enhance my makeup with a dab of loose powder.

“The Kay beauty loose powder is my go-to product to achieve that high definition finish. I think of a setting as a wonder tool that locks your makeup in place.

“So if you’re on the lookout for that one product that will help you stay ultra-set for hours – this is the one.”

This makeup trick is perfect for women who suffer from oily skin but want their makeup to last. A little loose powder certainly goes a long way.

Cat Eye Look

An iconic cat-eye look is something that will never go out of vogue. In fact, this a makeup look which has been worn by the actress time and again.

Here, Katrina is sporting a gorgeous cat-eye. However, unlike a classic cat-eye, Katrina has opted to go for a softer look by smoking out the eyeliner.

The eye look is matched with a shimmery nude lip and bronzed cheekbones. Sharing her tips for the perfect look on Instagram, Katrina wrote:

“Step 1: Use the High Drama Kajal on your upper and lower lash line. Step 2: Use the smudger at the back of your pencil & lightly smudge out the lash time.

“This trick helps the eye open up & makes it look glamorous.”

The Importance of Highlighter

The beauty and power of a highlighter are certainly unprecedented as it can instantly amplify your makeup look when applied.

Highlighters are available in an array of forms. These include powder, liquid, strobing creams, stick and brick highlighters to name a few.

Here, Katrina is loving an ultra-shimmery powder highlighter which leaves the skin with a dewy finish.

Apply highlighter to the highpoints of your cheeks, down the bridge of your nose, cupids bow, brow bone and forehead temples.

Bring on the Blush

While Katrina Kaif loves a chiselled look with contour, the actress also likes to soften the look with a bit of blush.

Applying blush to the cheeks is something almost every makeup wearer knows. However, blush is not only restricted to the cheeks.

Blush can also be applied to the nose, chin and forehead. This will give an all-round youthful glow to the skin.

Similar to what Katrina has done, lightly apply your favourite blush to all the above-mentioned areas.

If you wish to further enhance your makeup look, simply add the same blush to the eyelids.

A Vivacious Pink Look

Up next, we have another bright lipstick which is loved by Katrina Kaif. It is clear the actress favours both a nude lip and bold lip.

In this instance, Katrina looks stunning with a vivacious hot pink matte lip.

Paired with brown smokey eyes and full lashes, a bright pink look enhances the warm tones in the makeup.

Do not be afraid to play with colourful lipsticks like Katrina Kaif.

These seven makeup tips and tricks by Katrina Kaif are certainly noteworthy. Adopting these simple changes to your makeup routine will elevate your look.
